Bubba just called me.....what a laugh we had!

Hi guys,

The last half an hour was spent with a surprise call from Bubba (redshirt1957). It gave me the opportunity to thank him most sincerely for the beautiful Sub he sent me in May. And it also gave us the opportunity to share a few laughs and tit-bits about our respective families.

What a wonderful guy.....wish I can meet up with him some day.

JJ

Some conversation! All I heard was the blatting of sheep and jars of vaseline being opened. Felt like one of the old guys sitting at the pervert bar at a strip club looking up at the ladies, with only one dollar in my hand; waiting for my turn that will never come.

Nice.

I can't believe a cold, sterile internet world (read Gibson, Sterling etc as a child) has become such a friendly place.

Cheers to all the good guys and girls of TRF.
